Budget bonus for counties road work  gŏđŏ

take advantage of an early start on the ten- dering process for construction projects. Many companies at this time are willing to present lower bids than usual because they want to get their construction sea- son schedule filled as soon as possible and not risk have crews and equipment sitting idle. As the construction season moves into summer municipalities and school districts that begin their capital works tender pro- cesses then find there is less competition to bid from companies because most have full schedules and are not in urgent need of more work until later in the year. Counties council accepted a recommen-

dation from administration to use $300,000 of the $1.8 million still remaining unused now in the public works budget to further extend road rehabilitation work on County Road 1 in Clarence-Rockland and County Road 3 in Russell Township. The remaining $1.5 million will go into a temporary reserve fund to use after the counties staff finishes work on a new stra- tegic plan for recreational cycling paths throughout Prescott-Russell. The money will then go towards building paved shoul- ders for those recreational cycling routes to enhance their tourist market potential and safety features.

for road work projects for the counties with some surprise savings. Marc Clermont, public works director for the United Counties of Prescott-Russell (UCPR), reported a $1.8 million surprise surplus already in his capital works budget allocation for road construction this year before the first layer of asphalt even gets rolled out. “It’s very good news,” Clermont told the counties council during the June 12 com- mittee of the whole session. “These (con- struction) outfits are really hungry.” Having the counties budget approved very early in the year means Clermont can

ROCKLAND | Now residents of Prescott- Russell can show their loyalty to local businesses and also earn themselves points for future purchases. Prescott and Russell Economic Develop- ment and Tourism will launch the Prescott- Russell Priority Card (PRPC) program later this year in cooperation with all the cham- bers of commerce in the region. The proj- ect is also getting a $35,000 funding boost from the federal government’s Eastern On- tario Development Program. The PRPC program is a points-card sys- tem that businesses belonging to local chambers of commerce can sign up for to encourage their customers to do more local shopping in Prescott-Russell rather than go- ing outside of the region to Ottawa, across the Ottawa River to Montréal, or south of the border into the U.S. The PR Priority Card, which becomes available to consumers this fall, is a “loyalty points” program that allows cardholders to earn “dollars” on their cards when purchas- ing goods or services at participating busi- nesses. Those PR Priority Card “dollars” can then be used for future purchases. The PR Priority Card will be valid at any business taking part in the program which is a member of a chamber of commerce in the Prescott-Russell region. Besides encour- aging more local shopping, the program also seeks to encourage more businesses to become members of their local cham- bers of commerce and thus help make the chambers stronger and better able to lobby on behalf of their local business sector. $+,ŏ(+(ŏ,.+&!0ŏ (1*$!
